Labour have tried to suggest that Parliament is under-occupied and wasting precious time: it's not true, and implies that MPs should always be on stand-by to interfere
Strongly disagree police should interpret broad terms of legislation. Thats simply bad law. Take theft, clearly defined in s1 of the Theft Act. Gives 5 points to prove before theft can be shown. 4 points, no theft. Easy, simple, clean, practical. Thats what cops and prosecutors want. Defined law with points to prove. Not vague ideals, You have the right to assembly, what doez that mean. Rathet than saying what i can do, criminal law ought to say what i cannot do. Dont get me started on prosecuting thought and content.
